Insert Movie "Year" into filename
#1
Hi All,

Is there a way to take the "Year" metadata from Kodi and insert into the filename? I have 100's of movies without the correct naming and are looking tidy up.

On that note, any recommendations for a tool to create a folder based on a filename and then move that file into it?

Filebot can lookup the movie or TV show and rename the file accordingly

You can also check out "media companion", supported here in the "supplementary tools for Kodi" forum. Can rename based on scraped data, grab art, write nfos, get set info, etc.

Filebot is excellent - thanks.

I used this to create folders based on files names - worked well.

Code:
@echo off
for %%a in (*.*) do (
md "%%~na" 2>nul
move "%%a" "%%~na"
)
pause

I also used missing movies which worked well. I'll checkout media companion.

How do you use the script? Is it .bat file or how do you use it.

Create a .bat file. Execute in the folder with the files you wish to convert. It will convert all files (even itself) into folder of the same name.
